[Video/Action for Goldenrod]

Looks like we've finally made it! It's been a long trip, but my Pokémon and I have arrived safely in Goldenrod. I regret not being able to take it at a slower pace, but hopefully the time we spend here will make up for it.

[He pauses here, looking thoughtful.]

I've been... curious, to say the least. In the time I've spent here, I've heard of a few different worlds, and they all seem to have differing views on the subject of magic. So now, I would like to bring the question to all of Johto - what is magic like in your world? If it doesn't exist, what is it supposedly like? My own world relies on magic, so I can't help but wonder.

[Later; Action at the Breeding Centre]

[Asuma arrives, Reika the Gloom following him as always. He's mostly just checking the place out for now, but he'll probably make his way to the front desk at some point. Bother? Help the guy out? It's up to you!]

I'm pretty sure Souji knows pretty much everyone in Johto, seriously. It really comes in handy for stuff like that.

[youngforhisage.livejournal.com]

I'll bet. I guess that would make him the type to draw others to him.

action;

[skillspanner]

Yeah. For a pretty quiet guy, he's pretty good about that kind of stuff. I dunno how he does it, hehe.

[youngforhisage.livejournal.com]

Magnetic personality, perhaps?

action;

[skillspanner]

Yeah. [Smiling a bit fondly and nodding.] You can definitely say that about him, hehe.

action;

[youngforhisage.livejournal.com]

You sound like you know him well.

action;

[skillspanner]

We-well, he is my best friend, hahaha...

action;

[youngforhisage.livejournal.com]

From here, or your world?

action;

[skillspanner]

Well, both, technically. But I knew him waaay before coming here.

action;

[youngforhisage.livejournal.com]

Wow, that's pretty lucky of you!

action;

[skillspanner]

Yeah. I guess it's pretty lucky anytime someone from where you come from is here in Johto, actually.

action;

[youngforhisage.livejournal.com]

And even moreso when they're a friend, I would think.

action;

[skillspanner]

Yeah, definitely. I'm sure pretty much anyone would take that over someone they didn't like.

action;

[youngforhisage.livejournal.com]

Still, I have to wonder if anyone would be happy to see someone they hated here, just for a familiar face.

action;

[skillspanner]

I guess it depends... I mean, there's definitely a few people who'd just piss me off no matter what.

action;

[youngforhisage.livejournal.com]

That bad, huh?

action;

[skillspanner]

[He nods. There aren't many people like that, but he can think of a couple who he'd want to hit. He lets out a quiet sigh.]

Yeah, but they're not here, so I guess it doesn't matter much.

action;

[youngforhisage.livejournal.com]

If that's the case, we'll have to hope they won't ever come here.

action;

[skillspanner]

Yeah, pretty much. I mean, you never know what'll happen around here, but I guess for now it's not that big of a deal.

action;

[youngforhisage.livejournal.com]

This place does enjoy being unpredictable, doesn't it?

action;

[skillspanner]

I'm pretty sure that's what it does best...

action;

[youngforhisage.livejournal.com]

I don't think that's always a bad thing, though. If it hadn't unpredictably taken me, I wouldn't have been able to have a change of pace in my life.

action;

[skillspanner]

Yeah, I guess you've got a point there. I didn't really... think of it that way, a guess.

action;

[youngforhisage.livejournal.com]

It may be different for you, though. Life at home was fast-paced, so I'm enjoying taking things slower here.

action;

[skillspanner]

Hehe, things were really... slow back home. I guess... [A thoughtful pause.] I like my friends being all together here. We were pretty split up back home.
